Hi the walk was lovely , the visitors centre well what a delight in relation to facilities, but was so let down by the coffee over prices at two pounds, so poor it was good it was in a small paper cup it's such a shame that the refreshments were poor, the staff of one was polite and friendly but was not overly fast in service .surely the arboretum could do better to support the excellent facilities and the people who use it

Relaxing place for a stroll around. Pity the illuminations have stopped. Such a crowd pleaser. Bring them back!!

Walsall Arboretum is such a lovely place to visit, my grandkids love the play area which has plenty to do for all ages ranging from tots to young teens. The water play area is ideal to visit on warmer days and the kids really enjoy it. There's also a skate park adjacent to the play area which makes it ideal if you have young kids wanting the play area and teens wanting the skate park.
The Arboretum itself is stunning and beautifully maintained, a perfect place for your morning jog or after lunch stroll. When I'm enjoying a stroll, taking in all of the wildlife and beautiful trees I find it hard to believe that I'm less than a ten minute walk from Walsall town centre.
I would definitely recommend a visit.

Such a beautiful place. I was always visiting as a child/teenager/adult. Have always returned after moving away. Shame the illuminations had to go. X

Haven't been here for ages but decided to go out for a walk. Plenty of parking at the top end and wow was I surprised by the amount of work the council have put in to renovating the park which was old & tired. It's fabulous to walk around the boating lake, which you can no go on in paddle boats. There is a cafe, the gardens and pavements have been refreshed. In addition, the kids park had been redone and is a lot safer for young children. Definitely worth a visit!

I visit the arboretum quite a few times and took friends round with me on Saturday. They were very impressed and would recommend it to friends and family. Its good that the Arboretum is now an all year round attraction.

Loads of decluttering, replanting and the bandstand area cleaned and repainted...It's worth going to see the bandstand in it's Victorian livery

The arboretum is a really lovely place for all ages alike, young,old,families & couples. We visit regular all the year round it's lovely for bike rides, walks, the park and the water park - my children 5 & 8 years old always have a great time the water area on hot days is fantastic keeps them occupied for hours, the make plenty of friends and burn off some serious energy! There's an ice cream truck and burger van which is a little expensive but great if you don't take your own picnic with you! The council have spent some serious money on doing this park and its grounds up and it is evident wherever you go throughout the park - it's starting to resemble the same look as londons beautiful Hyde park - definitely worth a visit!

Just back from visiting this lovely place where I used to visit regularly with my sister's kids and now im taking my own. We had such fun running around the park lots to see and do and at the moment there is a small fair with trampolines, zorbs and bouncy castles which are very reasonable. There is a brand new cafe and also a land train for an extra treat. A big shout out to the great staff on the fair who were brilliant with my boy on the trampolines. Thank you.

Walsall arboretum is a beautiful place to take the family. The park is, as my six year old says "awesome!!". A miniature train takes you on a magical little journey to a play wonderland. There's plenty there to keep a family entertained, splash land, zip wire, peddlos and plenty more, all afternoon. I would highly recommend this place for all families with children or anyone who wants a pleasant walk through lovely surroundings.

This is a lovely Park for a walk, bike ride, picnic, and to feed the ducks and geese. We usually go when it's sunny as there's loads of trees for shade, and there's an ice cream van available. It's perfect and easy to forget you're in walsall.

Got to say I only live a minute walk away from this fantastic park, as a child is was a great place to visit, it holds so many good memories for me and my sister....as I am now in my 50's it still has the same affect, the lottery grant as done a grand job for the park, and I can honestly say the park is a kids and adults paradise.

Visited here 2 week ago (Sun 9th of Aug) The walk through the park grounds is beautiful and the tranquil and stillness of the water features is a little paradise. Then to actually stumble into the water park and slides and swings with the fair and so much for all ages it truly is a hidden gem 10/10

My husband and I have watched with interest the improvements to the Arboretum over the last 12 months and thoroughly enjoy our walk through this vastly improved park. We particularly like the new cafe, there is not a great deal of variety in the food, but we think it is adequate, the toilets are spotless and the staff very pleasant.
We are told there are a number of rangers patrolling, but we don't seem to have seen any. We would hate to see any part of this tranquil space vandalised, please keep it well patrolled and hopefully all the improvements made will stay put.
